You cannot call an article bullcrap without researching about the topic. I have given the quotes and the authors who have written about it. It is not just me, even ‘History channel’ in a documentary has said about this extensively http://youtu.be/zPQA1RBrwRE (check the video) however unlike what the mahabharata says they are speculating that it might have been an alien attack.

There can be no other reason for a complete destruction of highly evolved civilization.

So true.. Sanatana Dharma A way of life…
I always wanted to read Gita but never did..
From my understanding Hinduism accepts everything. its a culture that is designed in such a way that we won’t ruin anything for our greed. We see god in everything… if you can understand it you will find scientific reason for all belief.

I think u r 100% true.. The fact that our own govt doesnt care about our culture and it importance. The world is doing research on Indian culture and learning the technology used by our ancestors. hope our people understand them

Great article. I myself got very interested in Hinduism and our ancient texts and ancient history and recently came across this article in my searches. I assume others readers are in a similar state of mind as I am and would recommend these additional links:
(1)Hinduism: http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/ Translations of several of our ancient texts
(2)Ancient aliens : http://www.history.com/shows/ancient-aliens around 15 episodes posted on Netflix.

It is sad that you are still addressing our way of life as Hinduism. There is no such thing as Hinduism, it is sanatana Dharma a way of life; the westerners named it as one of the ‘isms’. Sanatana Dharma accepts even Atheism unlike any other religion. We said we have 300 million Gods in our ancient texts, because we knew that every human being have the possibility of experiencing the divine. You had four different paths to achieve that realization and Bhakthi is just one of it.

All the best for all your endeavors.

Hi Abhishek,

The Brahmastra is derived from Brahman(the one which pervades everywhere including the sub atomic particles) and not Brahma in my opinion , the root of all creation and existence.

Absolute bullcrap. Do you have a habit of writing any stupid crap that comes into your mind Ajith? You haven’t cited one source for any of your claims. You are no better than that idiotic Max Mueller who concocted the “Aryan Invastion theory” sitting in his arm chair in Oxford. There were no radioactive skeletons discovered at the Indus Valley sites. Ever. Give me a link or reference to a scientific study done by archaeologists or other scientists who have said so. The Oppenheimer quote was interesting. Any source that I can verify that with?
This is my sincerest request to all Hindus/Nationalists out there, please don’t mix in pseudo-scientific “facts” that come out of your day-dreams with our puranas and our culture. It does more damage than . If you are really interested in helping our cause then go and do some proper scientific research and publish papers and present your case to the scientific community. IMO those researchers who proved using DNA tests that Indians are one people all genetically linked, have done more to discredit the Aryan Invasion theory than the Sangh, the blogosphere could ever do. Please do anything that presents the case for India & Sanatana Dharma instead of such pointless ramblings.

This article is so unbelievably amazing. Bookmarked it and will start a more in-depth research into it soon. Hope can be of some assistance to u in future, Ajith sir.
Also bookmarked this article to show it to my parents and relatives. This article makes me feel so proud as a Hindu / Bhartiya but sad at the same time to know where all that glory of ancient India is gone?

And I am more interested now to study and research on Hinduism / Ancient India.

Also regarding all the troubles in the world I believe that Kalki avatar of Lord Vishnu is definitely a truth that will happen very soon now. Forgive me if I am sounding ignorant. My knowledge on my own religion is not that strong but I will start study and research on it soon.

Ajith sir, I was just about to bring this point that Lord Brahma being the creator then Brahmastra would definitely have to be that ultimate Weapon based on the Basic Unit of all Matter (Atom).

I?ve been exploring for a little bit for any high-quality articles or blog posts on this sort of space . Exploring in Yahoo I eventually stumbled upon this site. Studying this information So i?m happy to convey that I’ve a very excellent uncanny feeling I found out just what I needed. I most certainly will make sure to don?t forget this website and give it a glance on a constant basis.

Yes indeed. Many people have a misconception that Brahmastra is the astra of Lord Brahma, but it is the asthra meant to make use of the the power of Brahman which according to Indian tradition is the root of all energy, matter and the root of all creation. It is all but natural that an astra which acts as a nuclear bomb is named as Brahmastra.

There’re descriptions of such kind of weapons which were called “astras” in sanskrit,such as Brahmastra,Vajrastra,Pashupatiastra,Narayanastra,etc in Puranas and Bhagwad Gita.Vyas also describes in details about the destructive effects of these weapons similiar to those in modern times & how the Mahabharata war was fought.

Perfect.. Can’t agree more, however people get what they deserve. The Indian population back then was close to 400 million and UK’s population was just 40 million. Even if most of the Indians used stone and sticks to attack Britishers, they would have left the country with no choice. There was no unity or leadership for India, so they deserved it. It is hard as an Indian for me write this, however that is a fact.

Wonder no more. It was is the direct result of British imperialism. This is what happens when that pirate nation has its way you. Ask the Kenyans. Ask the Irish. Ask the Iraqis.

Film, TV and literature would have us believe in a nation of gardeners and shopkeepers, a warm and caring, cheerful, funny people, all about their busy day, inventing just about everything ever invented, exploring dark and savage lands and writing almost all of the world’s greatest classics. Yet they somehow still find time, we’re told, to set aside all class distinctions, down at the village pub, and commune across a pint or two, and a friendly game of darts. Think democracy at it’s finest, if not it’s very homeland. Think “mother of parliaments,” Magna Carta and rule of law not men. Think fair play, i.e. by English rules.

But should the need arise, they’ll drop their well deserved idyllic lives to stand (alone if need be), a “thin red line of heroes,” between Western Civilization and whichever apocalypse looms greatest at the moment. Never have so many owed so much to so few. “Finest hour” and all that. “Over the top” and Tally ho!” Knights in shining armour and stout yeomanry alike, a happy band of brothers, these,with smiles on their faces and jokes at the ready, should ever you own moral sink. Bloody good chaps to have at your side in a scrap, especially when in the thick of it, and in everyday life no finer friend, loyal even to a fault.

Think Mr. Chips. Think Mrs. Miniver. Think Monty. Think Monty Python.

Balderdash. Codswallop. Don’t believe it for a minute. That’s not the real Great Britain. Oh, the ordinary Brit’s alright, no better and no worse than ordinary people anywhere.

But the English ruling class? They’re Evil Inc., and that’s putting it politely. If they simply outright massacre you, you’re among the lucky ones. Survivors slave or starve.

So forget Mr. Chips, et al.

Think Lord Jeffrey Amherst wondering (in a postscript no less), “Could it not be contrived to send the Small Pox among those disaffected tribes of Indians? We must on this occasion use every stratagem in our power to reduce them.”

Think Sir Arthur “Bomber” Harris, burning the old men, women and children of Dresden alive.

Think Sir Winston Churchill, the “Butcher of Gallipoli,” writing in 1920, “I do not understand this sqeamishness about the use of gas. I am strongly in favour of using poison gas against uncivilised tribes.”

With officers like these, of course the ship’s a pirate. No mere idle speculation, this. History bears it out.

I started following Hinduism for the past 5 years. I did so after accidentally reading bagavat gita. I just wonder how such a great civilization is reduced to a third world country today.

Great article and a nice presentation.
